verse
[Gm]The city streets are wet with rain tonig[Eb]ht
[Gm]Taxi drivers swerve from lane to lane[Eb]
[Gm]A lonely guitar man playin' down the hal[Eb]l
[D]Midnight blues comin' thro[Gm]ugh the walls[F][C]
[Gm]I tried to call you on the telep[Eb]hone
[Gm]I left it off the hook just to h[Eb]ear it ring
[Gm]You told me you were better off alone[Eb]
[D]I never knew that tears[Eb] could stain
Chorus
[G#m]I'm on the roof and I'm star[E]in' at t[F#]he stars[G#m]
Lookin' down[E] at all [B]the car[F#]s
I can see [A]you[E]
[G#m]In the window of your favori[E]te corner [F#]bar[G#m]
[E]But to reach you i[B]s just too[F#] far
[A]And I might as well be on[E] Mars
[Gm]The city seems so old and grey and beat[Eb]
[Gm]It closes in and makes me wanna suffocat[Eb]e
[Gm]And you just live across the str[Eb]eet
But that[D]'s a billion miles away[Eb]
[G#m]You've turned my world into a dark a[E]nd lonely p[F#]lace[G#m]
Li[E]ke a p[B]lanet lo[F#]st in space
My light is fad[A]in'[E]
[G#m]I'd cross the universe to be [E]right where[F#] you are[G#m]
But[E] I'm right [B]in your[F#] backyard
And I mi[A]ght as well be on Mars[E]
Bridge
I might as well be on Mars[F#]
You can't see[E] me[B]
I might as well be the M[F#]an on the Moon
You can't hear me[E][B]
[Ebm]Oh, can you f[Esus4]eel me [E]
So close[C#m] and yet s[B]o far[F#]
Baby, I migh[A]t as well be o[Gm]n M[F#]ars[B]
